A Big Fat Zero!!

Ben · 25 May 2003, 00:52

well, what can i say!!??

well done to great britain who scored a BIG FAT zero in this years eurovision song contest!

just about sums up the quality of music these days! (see fast food rockers post)

Jen · 25 May 2003, 01:20

Didn't watch it but zero, man that's really bad.

So who won it anyway?

Ben · 25 May 2003, 01:23

Turkey won it.

Jen · 25 May 2003, 01:25

Any good?

I thought Tatu were expected to win

Ben · 25 May 2003, 01:27

it wernt bad, i suppose. just a typical turkish tune, sort of belly dancer music style, sort of thing.

tatu sung there song in russian, so i certainly didnt understand it. i think they came 3rd and belgium came 2nd.

Jen · 25 May 2003, 01:30

I think some of Tatu's stuff sounds better in Russian, cos then you've got no idea what they're sayin'

Ben · 25 May 2003, 01:31

yeah, id agree with that! lol.

id even go as far to say that there better off staying in Russia!

Testify · 25 May 2003, 22:57

i cant stand TATU, i think their music sucks. but thats my opinion.

Ben · 25 May 2003, 23:31

i totally agree testify!

Asha · 26 May 2003, 02:05

Didn't see anything of the contect I must admit.
Did hear that the Netherlands came in 14th place or something like it.
Our southern neighbours are happy I think (belgium) They finished ahead off us AGAIN......

Have only just seen the video for jemini our entry - what c..p I cann't believe that with the talent in this land we cann't come up with something that would take the eurovision contest by storm. We deserved nil points

Mind u still love the concept of the show. Always tape it when I'm going to out for the night - am I a sad person or what

evil nickname · 26 May 2003, 12:43

England was, to put it nicely, bad.
Russia (Tatu) didn't work for me.
Belgium was good and should have won.
Turkey sounded like a total rip-off from that (also turkish) song when that guy is "kissing" (actually, it was an awefull smacking noice) the air. It was coverd this or last year, so maybe you'd recognice that version. There was a 'oriental' keyboard thingie (like I would know how to call it) which was exactly the same to me.
The Netherlands, well, we shouldn't have send someone who could sing.
Poland and Estonia were really good too, imho.

**The Flying Mouse** · 26 May 2003, 14:23

I didn't see the show.
Was Englands song really that bad

.Saying that,I can't really be that suprised if the charts are anything to go by.
As for Tatu,I can't stand them

.I think their last song "They're not going to get us" is actualy a prediction over their album sales

.
Also,has anyone else noticed that the one with black hair is the spitting image of Damien in the Omen II.

Well, Ben, altough I seem to remembert the song had a turkish title, that's it. Sounds a hell of a lot alike to me.

Ben · 27 May 2003, 11:08

i can remember the turkish title of the song. i think that its something like Simarik, but not 100% sure.

Testify · 27 May 2003, 12:07

It was Romania. There is a link to the eurovision website page for them:

http://www.eurovision.tv/public/participants/23331.html

(are we allowed links?)

You can listen to recordings of all the songs too.

EDIT: Her name is just 'Nicola'
